Chapter 12 lotf

• My reaction to the end of the novel: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. WHY DIDNT JACK DIE?? WHY DIDNT THEY ALL DIE?? IM SO MAD??? 
• I think that the reason that Ralph cried at the end of the novel was because during the events that directly preceded the "rescue" he was racing for his life. All of the boys pn the island had turned against him and he was on the very brink of his own death. Finally coming to the realization that everything was over. That he no longer had to go on living in a constant state of fear anymore. It was wayyy too much to handle especially when you had spent so much time trying to get rescued in the first place only to have to forget that because things had managed to get so damn bad. I dont blame him.
• Honestly, I dont know there are ohhh soooo many options to choose from. But i think that it would be so damn stereotypical to  choose jack but i mean thats the way the novel is set up. so yes i hate jack. hes a dick. Hes the reason that everything began to crumble in the first place. He the reason that everything on the island went as far as it did. Hes the reason why piggy and simon DIED.
• I don't know whether or not id recommend this novel. It wasn't something that i was too interested in because it primarily surrounded boys so there wasn't too much diversity. and on top of that i felt like i just didn't end up liking any of the characters because for some reason one way or another every single character managed to profoundly piss me off.
